‘It comes full…’: Ratan Tata’s millennial friend Shantanu Naidu gets top role at Tata Motors, shares emotional post

Shantanu Naidu first set foot in the Tata Group of companies in May 2009, when he joined Tata Technologies as an engineering intern.
Shantanu Naidu who is known for a special bond with late industrialist Ratan Tata, has embarked on a new journey following the industrialist and philanthropist’s passing. Mr. Naidu has joined a new position at Tata Motors, becoming the general manager and head of strategic initiatives.
Naidu, 32, shared his career update on LinkedIn. “I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as General Manager, Head – Strategic Initiatives at Tata Motors!” he wrote.
Turning nostalgic, he added, “I remember when my father used to walk home from the Tata Motors plant in his white shirt and navy pants, and I would wait for him in the window. It comes full circle now.”
